Beginner Fly Tying Lesson 3 Pheasant Tail
Nice 👍🏽 simple caddis pattern! Thanks 🙏🏾 for sharing! IOBO would be cool 😎 with Ostrich too. Like 👍🏽 your buddy said. I’ve got to give that a try!
Annoying watching you struggle with the vice.
Phil is a real one 👍
Nice work. If you're ever at Bennett on Wednesday mornings stop by the fly tying group
That perch matulka looked very cool
Great explanations for us folks new to fly tying. Mega Thx !
I will be using a yellow schlappen feather. Thanx for the patterns.
Great idea!
and it still works today. It's one of my go to if nothing else is working. World renowned Bow River browns candy.
don't throw the Gard hairs away.I use them and the under fur (cut up the Gard hairs) and blend them in my coffee grinder((I bought at Walmart) and it makes a high floating dubbing. When dubbing on small hooks I invert my hook(rotary vice) so it's upside down this way you can get right up to the hook shank and you save your fingers from getting stuck . Nice feather ,I choose to use a feather from a wood duck wing ,the colour and speckling on them is unmatched.
Thank you for your reply and comments.
I'm an old dog (70+) and I can still learn a thing or two ! Watching you tye Mr. Beatty has taught me a lot of tricks I never new before watching you tye. My father gave me my first fly tying kit when I was 14 ,for Christmas. I later found out it wasn't SANTA but my DAD.I've been tying and fishing ever since. It will always be my passion , hobby and art .Thank you so much ! Ken from Calgary Alberta Canada. tight lines !☺👍✌
Kenneth, Glad you enjoyed the video. Al and Gretchen are master tyers and I learn something from them every time I watch or talk to them. Tight Lines and Be Well!!
Love the Beattys fly tying I enjoy watching your channel. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed the video, we love having the Beattys on our channel, they always provide exceptional tying demonstrations and information.
Gidday guys. Nice flies from both of you.
Thank yoiu.
Looking good, Mike. Tight Lines - (Gretchen &) Al Beatty
John, we LOVE the video. We must admit, we've never shaped balsa wood popper heads. Now that we know it's so easy, it will be in our future endeavors. Also, we really like the double camera feed for the material addition part of the presentation at the end of the video.
Al and Gretchen, glad you enjoyed it. This was my first attempt at a dual camera display. Thanks for your comments.
Good job. I’m glad you will be getting to the Woolly Bugger soon. It’s a great fly for beginners to learn & so vital to have in your fly box. It won’t be of much use in Omaha, but if you pick up viewers on the East or West Coast, they will find saltwater versions of the San Juan Worm or the Wooly Bugger will be useful to imitate saltwater worms. You can use a variegated chenille like you showed or a solid color, especially white, black or red. Fish take them as sea worms or small minnows. Best wishes in your series of videos for Healing Waters. I tie for a local Healing Waters chapter near Boston, & it’s a wonderful program. They are sponsored by a local angler club which has it’s own pond, so they focus a lot on trout & bass flies which are likely to be pretty much the same ones you would choose.
Thank you for your kind words. Actually we find both flys very effective for Bass, Bluegill and Crappie as well as Trout. Yes we have trout streams in Nebraska. Closest is about 3 hours from Omaha.
Thanks for your comments. As for the San Juan Worm, it was created to represent aquatic worms in the San Juan River. It may do well to represent saltwater worms but it is widely used nationwide. Teamed with a stonefly nymph like Pat’s Rubber Legs, the “worm and a turd” is widely used by guides throughout the Rocky Mountain West and Midwest. As for the Wooly Bugger, it was designed to represent a dobsonfly larva. Again, not a saltwater pattern or an east/west coast thing. It can mimic a leech, worm, or baitfish as well.
Gidday Gretchen and Al. Nice work and great tips. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
